What’s Included in the Santa’s Workshop Kit:

How to Use the Santa’s Workshop Celebration Kit:

1. Invitations Made Easy
Print as many invitation postcards as you need and send them to your students’ families—or the entire neighborhood! Hosting events like this builds connections with families and serves as a fun way to promote your preschool program.

2. Festive Circle Time Activities
Kick off your event with a group activity that brings everyone together!

• Jolly Santa Song (Sung to the tune of “London Bridge”)
  Let children stomp, shake, and sing along with actions like shaking Santa’s beard or stomping boots.
  
• ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas Storytime
  Use the included story pieces to make this classic holiday tale interactive. Invite children to hold up the pieces when their parts are mentioned in the story.

3. Creative Art and Snacks

• Santa Spoon Puppet: Children can create their own Santa with a wooden spoon, cotton balls, and craft supplies.
• Reindeer Snacks: Let kids build edible reindeer faces using graham crackers, pretzels, and raisins. This doubles as a creative activity and a tasty treat!

4. Interactive Games

• Santa’s Beard Game: Help Santa fill up his beard with cotton balls while avoiding the mischievous “angry robber” card.
• Reindeer Training Game: Set up an obstacle course using masking tape and a spinner. Children can practice prancing, galloping, and even freezing in place as they train to join Santa’s sleigh team!

5. Fun Holiday Stations
Create hands-on stations to keep families engaged:

• Snowman Puffy Painting: Use a mix of shaving cream and glue to create textured snowman art.
• Decorate the Tree: With green playdough and colorful beads, children can craft mini Christmas trees and adorn them with festive decorations.
